when you boot with the ubuntu live disc, there will be an icon on the desktop labled “Install Ubuntu”

Well if you do not like Windows 98 you can probably upgrade it to Windows 2000. As for Linux that is best if installed from a Linux installation CD not a Live CD. A Live CD is basically Linux running from a CD without any save space. I would recommend wiping the hard drive and installing Linux direct to the hard drive. That way you would not have to install every program you want each time the computer starts up.
How to install a OS:
1. Get a OS disk.
2. Insert OS disk into disk drive
3. Start computer and make it boot from the inserted disk.
4. Go through the installation wizard or procedure.

Try burning a CD with Ubuntu, or possibly due to the age of your computer try damn small Linux or puppy Linux which are smaller distro’s, you can download a burner to burn your ISO (disk image) into your cd or even use a USB stick to load it, there are also windows installers (which mean you double click it and it installs throught windows) try using wubi (search google for it) and just follow the simple instructions like any other installer and its ready to go! and by using wubi it automatically can keep your windows 98 and linux installation on the same computer, so you can boot either one easily at startup
Hope it helps

I run ubuntu 10.04 and installed it throught wubi (duel boot)
